Monza to Frustrate Empoli

There are reasons to back Monza on the Asian Handicap, with the underdogs in receipt of +0.75 at odds of 1.90 against Empoli. With the stake split between +0.5 and +1.0, we think a return could be on the cards.

Goalless Draw in in Pair’s Previous H2H

Monza have lost three straight home games. In their last appearance, they won on the road, beating Udinese 2-1 at Stadio Friuli. Alessandro Nesta's team recorded 40% possession and had two shots on target, while Gianluca Caprari and Keita Balde scored one goal each.

Survival-chasing Empoli have lost their previous two on the road. Their most recent game was at home at Stadio Carlo Castellani where they secured a 2-1 win against Parma. Gli Azzurri had five shots on goal and 46% possession, with Jacopo Fazzini and Tino Anjorin both on target.

When the teams last met, we saw Empoli draw 0-0 at home to Monza at Stadio Carlo Castellani. The previous 7 H2H games have included three draws coupled with two victories apiece.
